Real sensitive beauties
"It can be hard to buy lipstick online, colors display differently on monitors so you're never quite sure until you open the package. So I was excited to see Starlette is a beautiful shade of pink red just as advertised. It's a great bit of pop for any season, but not too dark like the colors I would use in winter. I have a fair complexion and red hair and this lipstick looks terrific, highly recommend."

This is the best lipstick brand I have ever used. Delivers on all its promises. This shade is beautiful, not red and not pink. I am fair skinned, brown eyes, silver hair. Shade is unique and complements everything. I highly recommend this one!!!

I really love the products (lip Stick) very moist on your lips. I give 5 stars because I love the colors and how it looks and feels on your lips. I just wish the company would make more of the popular colors. Red Apple Lipstick sells out because of the quality. I am very pleased.
Sincerely,
Tina T

Beautiful, bold, and very complimenting. I love the color, how smoothly it glides on, and how hydrating it is. I didn't experience cracking or flaking throughout over 5 hours of wearing this and enjoying drinks.
- JKJudy K.Verified BuyerReviewingSample StarletteI recommend this productWhat's your age range? 70+What's your beauty style? ClassicRated 4 out of 5 stars7 months agoLipstick that lasts longer
Love the color but sample too small to really tell how it stays in. I bought the Hibiscus for the second time and each time the lipstick stays on for such a short time and shows every wrinkle on lip and above. Is there a matte finish in these shades that works better. These seem to go in easy but just stay on top layers and are off in no time. What do I think is wrong?

I love the color Starlette! It’s more red than pink but it’s a soft red for daytime wear or at the office when you still want some color. The formula is smooth and goes on easily. I will be purchasing more!
